I am interested in finding out if any laboratory tests are available to
check for presence of gambierotoxin-4A (ciguatoxin predecessor) in algal
film covering dead corals killed by coral bleaching. If chemical tests for
gambierotoxin-4A are not available may be someone can detect presence of
micro algae Gambierodiscus toxicus in algal film?
